Ancient Japanese Hunting/Gathering By: Devin C. Demnyan
Ancient Japanese are mostly hunters or gatherers. • They hunted deer. • They fished. • They hunted boars
There were more hunters than gatherers. • Rise in temperature increased the food supply. • When the temperature rose the food was gathered from the sea more. • When the temperature rose, animals were hunted more and plants were gathered more often.
Fruits and seeds are one of the most commonly gathered plants. • Evidence of this diet is found in shell mounds and in ancient refuse heaps.
When the climate reached its peak in heat, people moved higher into the mountains. • When the climate reached it’s peak in cold people moved closer to sea level.
The Jomon period is when the Ancient Japanese hunted, fished, and gathered most.
Near the end of the Jomon period, the climate grew cold and the hunting, fishing, and gathering grew bad. • Because of this change in climate domesticated rice was the most gathered plant.
During Early Jomon fishing was the most popular way of getting food. • In the Yayoi period of Ancient Japan the people were advanced in maintaining rice paddy fields.
